A study of the blue straggler population of the old open cluster Collinder 261
M. J. Rain, G. Carraro, J. A. Ahumada +4
Blue Stragglers are stars located in an unexpected region of the color-magnitude diagram of a stellar population, as they appear bluer and more luminous than the stars in the turno…
The Smallest Scale of Hierarchy Survey (SSH). I. Survey Description
F. Annibali, G. Beccari, M. Bellazzini +7
The Smallest Scale of Hierarchy (SSH) survey is an ongoing strategic large program at the Large Binocular Telescope, aimed at the detection of faint stellar streams and satellites…
Uncovering a 260 pc wide, 35 Myr old filamentary relic of star formation
Giacomo Beccari, Henri M. J. Boffin, Tereza Jerabkova
Several recent studies have shown that the Vela OB2 region hosts a complex constellation of sub-populations with ages in the range 10 to 50 Myr. Such populations might represent th…
Star density profiles of six old star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud
B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro, E. Dalessandro +7
We used resolved star counts from Hubble Space Telescope images to determine the center of gravity and the projected density profiles of 6 old globular clusters in the Large Magell…
A stellar relic filament in the Orion star forming region
Tereza Jerabkova, Henri M. J. Boffin, Giacomo Beccari +1
We report the discovery of the oldest stellar substructure in the Orion star forming region (OSFR), the Orion relic filament. The relic filament is physically associated with the O…
Size diversity of old Large Magellanic Cloud clusters as determined by internal dynamical evolution
F. R. Ferraro, B. Lanzoni, E. Dalessandro +6
The distribution of size as a function of age observed for star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is very puzzling: young clusters are all compact, while the oldest syst…
